Helldivers Dev Marks 'Malevelon Creek Memorial Day', Issues Commemorative Capes | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Developer Arrowhead Game Studios has officially honoured the brave sacrifice and noble fallen of Malevelon Creek. The pivotal battle against the Automatons marked the community's first significant loss, which was recently avenged as a part of the ongoing Operation Swift Disassembly. To celebrate, 1st April will henceforth be known as Malevelon Creek Memorial Day, which should be spent in pensive reflection while simultaneously mainlining Helldivers 2.

Super Earth issued a proclamation, which reads: «By Presidential Decree, the President of Super Earth has officially recognized this day as Malevelon Creek Memorial Day. This week, in remembrance, all Helldivers will be issued a special commemorative cape, so they may carry the memory of their fallen companions into battle.» The cape in question is called Fallen Hero's Vengeance, the description for which reads: «Our heroic fallen live on in this cape, guiding its bearer's aim to the heart of those who killed them.» Powerful stuff.

In other Helldivers news, the Automatons have recently deployed heavy walkers and armoured gunships, which are proving quite difficult to counter, alongside a big balancing patch, which increased the level cap and added additional weather hazards.

For democracy...

We couldn't get a stable game running last night at all. Such a bummer. Needed to serve a big dollop of democracy
